Have you checked Zenith Carbs in the UK? They show the float for the Stromberg 3059s as available.

There is a pair of Strombergs for sale on EBay right now, too. Who knows the condition though.

Parts source

You could also try Joe Curto in Queens, NY. All he does are carb rebuilds and parts supplies, primarily SU's for MG's, Triumphs, Jags, etc. But aslo Strombergs and Zeniths - just British stuff. Reliable and knowledgeable.

Hope it helps. Will scrounge my box of parts and see if I have a set.

I use POR 15 gas tank sealant with great success. I would tink you could "dip" those floats in POR to forever seal.

KWIK POLY for floats in the stromberg

I recently tried the KWIK POLY on the floats and it worked great....it was warm here in Washington state when I mixed up the KWIK POLY....it was only in a liquid state for maybe 90 seconds...but....it sealed the floats...just saying......cs

Dip them in POR 15 gas tank sealer. If you don't want to buy a whole can just for these, send them to me as I have partial can.
